    Are you all now stating that the HSE is neglecting children?

    Answers please?

    The net wasn't so huge in the 80's.

    I remember the exam you are talking about, no one took a picture. It actually mate a pleasant change from the Brother who was our headmaster beating the **** out of us.
    Our headmasters favourite was strangling the children until their faces went red and blue.

    They did it when i was in school..it always created a big stir amongst the kids.
    A fat nurse would arrive and give you a going over..you were weighed,measured and had your eyes and teeth looked at.
    The highlight(not) was when she cupped your balls and told you to cough..this,i later found out was to test for improperly descended testicles.
    yeah i had to get an exam but from my local gp when i went to do sports, not in school

    Homer Simpson was your headmaster? :eek:

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    They still do eye tests and vaccines in schools. I think that with the advances in medicine over the years it's no longer necessary to screen for physical developmental problems in school. Kids are continuously screened from an early age these days

    On the contrary, this is the place, its the exact correct place.
    I stated, it may of been an individual pretending to be a hse official. Its not hard now, and wasn't back then, to produce fake letters.

    Good Gawd, Nite, you certainly ain't the brightest. In the 1980s it would have been the Health Board Public Health Nurse, sometimes accompanied by a Health Board Area Medical Officer. Unless you know of/have experienced explicit examples child sex abuse, then do not be making wild allegations in a forum that you have just joined. Also be aware that making or stating on a forum, those wild allegations, leaves you wide open to litigation. The Gardai are the appropriate authority for any specific allegation to be reported to. If you are not going to do that, then don't be surprised with the welcome you will get here.

    My primary school in the 1970's was in a bit of a deprived area..they used to give sandwiches and milk to the kids and had regular inspections for ringworm and headlice.

    What child abuse? All I see is someone trying to pretend they were abused, making a mockery of kids who were

    Answers here...

    Eh no, I am not missing a vital point... it seems you may be missing the point.

    "Those" exams do NOT seem to have been performed in most schools.

    "Those" exams do NOT seem to have been legal.

    "Those" exams were obivously NOT crucial to children's health.

    "Those" exams are not performed today because they are not legal.

    I am NOT stating that the HSE is neglecting children.

    I am NOW quitting while I'm ahead :D

    They don't do it because people like you exist and are having children. You would work to convince your child they were abused and that they are traumatised!

    I was schooled privately so we had exams for gout, cirrhosis and monocle eye. Its the several ports after tiffin that does it I gather.

    A medical exam is not child abuse.

    Next you'll be telling us that your ould wans fanny caressed you on the way out.
